Spotlight has died down, but pressure on James Murdoch is set to intensify

JAMES MURDOCH: As the investigations continue, the pressure on Rupert's son is set to intensify. "Some former senior executives of News International who until recently held powerful positions in the News Corporation’s British subsidiary and were privy to internal deliberations have indicated that they believe Mr. Murdoch knew more about widespread phone hacking at The News of the World than he indicated in his public testimony. If they continue to challenge Mr. Murdoch’s account, it could damage his effort to protect his own reputation and that of the parent company run by his father, Rupert." Something tells me they're not going to pass up this opportunity to weaken the Murdoch influence in Britain with great haste. Still, at least the media attention has died down a little; eclipsed by the Norway attacks, I suspect. The world has other, more threatening people to pursue.
